OverviewLA-2500 linear actuators provide reliable linear positioning for dampers, combustion controls, gates, diverters, hydraulic variable-speed drives and other industrial linear applications. AC powered, self-contained, bi-directional and internally geared, units deliver up to 7,117 N (1,600 lbf) thrust; some models support continuous modulating duty up to 2,000 starts/hr.
Applications- Damper and valve positioning
- Combustion and process control
- Gate, diverter and slide actuation
- Hydraulic variable-speed drive actuation
Key features- Self-locking drive system holds last position and prevents backdriving up to the thrust rating
- Available in single-phase or three-phase AC power
- Standard manual override
- HART® communications option available
- Automatic thrust limiting
- Anti-condensation heater and thermostat
- Mechanical thrust overload protection to prevent motor burnout
- High modulating duty for improved process control
- High positioning accuracy for better flow and process regulation
- Minimal maintenance requirements reduce plant downtime
- Lightweight, anti-corrosive cast aluminium housing
- Grease-lubricated for mounting in any orientation
- Rain shield and bellows cover to prevent water intrusion
